Manufactured in India, supplied in Jeddah
Acoustic panels in Jeddah
We manufacture acoustic panels at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply them into Jeddah. Made at our own plant in India and shipped straight into Jeddah, so the container lands at the city rather than a long drive away.
- Plain PET felt
- 9 to 24 mm, 1220 x 2440 mm standard, up to 2440 x 4270 mm, 1200 to 3600 GSM
- Printed felt
- 1800 x 900 mm, image printed into the felt rather than onto a facing
- Grooved panels
- Cut pattern in PET felt, adds visual rhythm without changing the absorber
- Test standard
- ASTM C423
- Lead time
- 4 to 7 working days standard
- Minimum order
- From 10 panels
- ASTM C423
- Made at our own plant, Palwal, Haryana, India
- One batch across the order, no blending between runs
We are the manufacturer. There is no local office and we do not claim approvals we do not hold. What you get is factory pricing, one consistent batch across the order, and a straight answer on what the material will and will not do.
01 / Start here
The material, and what it actually does on a Jeddah job
The full absorber range rather than one product: plain PET felt, printed felt, grooved panels and fabric finishes, chosen by how the room is used and how it has to look.
Work reaching us from Jeddah is mostly hotels and hospitality, corporate offices, apartments, hospitals, schools, retail.
Villas and apartment blocks are concrete and block with hard stone or tile throughout. Mass is there, but every room is live and impact noise between floors is untreated.
- Wall array Panels placed at first reflection points rather than spread evenly. Fewer panels, better result.
- Ceiling first In most rooms the ceiling is the largest untreated surface and the cheapest square metre of result.
- Mixed finish Plain felt where it is out of eye line, printed or grooved where it is seen.
- What it will not do Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant.
Full specification
Thickness, density, NRC by frequency, fire class, standard sizes and build-up detail for our acoustic panel range are on the main product page. This page covers what that means for a project in Jeddah.

02 / Specification sheet
Published specification, identical wherever we ship it
The specification below is the same everywhere we supply, because a specification that changed by city would not be a specification. What changes is which grade and build-up is the right buy, and that is what the rest of this page is about.
- EchoCore 151500 GSM. General commercial
- EchoPro 181800 GSM. Rooms with a written RT target
- EchoMax 222200 GSM. High occupancy and high level spaces

If a consultant has set the target, we will quote against their figures rather than ours, and stay out of the scope they own. More on working with acoustic consultants.

The Jeddah conditions that change the answer
- A gateway for pilgrimage hospitality
Large hotel quantities often continue inland from here. Tell us if that is happening and we stage and pack for the second leg.
- Coastal humidity
PET felt does not absorb moisture, shed fibre or feed mould, which matters on a humid Red Sea coast where mineral products sag.
- The port is at the city
Direct sea into Jeddah keeps the road leg short and the landed cost predictable, which is unusual in this region.
- Guest rooms fail at the door
Corridor noise and the next room cause more complaints than room acoustics. Door and wall detailing is where the work is.
- School and campus buildings
New school and university buildings are large, hard and highly glazed. Lecture theatres and sports halls are the spaces that fail first, and ceiling absorption is the practical fix.
- The studio and content scene
Media and content production is growing quickly, and rooms are being built inside existing commercial shells with no isolation plan. The background noise floor is usually the first problem to solve.
If you are specifying for a Jeddah project, we can give you a section, a BOQ and the honest limits of each layer. See how we support architects.
04 / Conditions
What the Jeddah climate rules in and rules out
Jeddah is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures, and that narrows the sensible material list before acoustics is even discussed.
Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves.
The risk we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
Designers get colour, pattern and CNC options with the absorption figure attached to each. See how we work with interior designers.
05 / Supply
What the route into Jeddah actually looks like
| Ships from | Palwal, Haryana, India |
|---|---|
| Arrives at | Jeddah, then a short road run or onward inland |
| Dispatch | 4 to 7 working days |
| Freight | Sea into Jeddah |
| Packing | Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected. |
| Lead time | 4 to 7 working days standard. Printed and grooved take longer. |
Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
Sea freight direct into Jeddah, then a short road run to site or onward inland. Air freight for samples and urgent quantities.
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load.
| Trial order | 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour |
|---|---|
| Recommended | Full container |
A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft.

The things worth knowing before you place the order
-
The wrong product for the problem
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
-
Square footage quoted before the room is understood
Anyone can price a wall. Working out how much material the room actually needs usually reduces the order, which is why not everyone does it.
-
Suppliers who imply a Jeddah presence
Ask any supplier where the material is made and who carries the warranty. We make it at Palwal in Haryana and we say so on every page, including this one.

Jeddah: questions we are actually asked
Is there a Jeddah factory behind this product?
No, and we will not say otherwise. We manufacture at our own plant at Palwal in Haryana, India, and supply into Jeddah as the manufacturer rather than through a dealer. Made at our own plant in India and shipped straight into Jeddah, so the container lands at the city rather than a long drive away. You buy at factory prices with one consistent batch across the order.
Why would a Jeddah build-up differ from anywhere else?
Direct sea into Jeddah keeps the road leg short and the landed cost predictable, which is unusual in this region. Large hotel quantities often continue inland from here. Tell us if that is happening and we stage and pack for the second leg. Those two things move the build-up far more than the panel figure does.
Will this material last in the Jeddah climate?
Jeddah is hot and dry for most of the year, with dust and high daytime surface temperatures. Dust is the enemy of open-cell products. PET felt does not shed, does not hold dust in the way fabric-wrapped glass wool does, and wipes down. Timber needs a stable indoor RH or it moves. The failure we design against here is dust ingress and thermal movement in long runs.
What is the delivery time into Jeddah?
ships from: Palwal, Haryana, India, arrives at: Jeddah, then a short road run or onward inland, dispatch: 4 to 7 working days. Standard items dispatch in 4 to 7 working days. Grooved panels and custom colours take longer, and we say so before you order, not after.
When are acoustic panels the wrong purchase?
Coverage is not the target, reverberation time is. Lining every surface wastes money and can leave a room sounding dead and unpleasant. We would rather calculate the area than sell the wall.
How is the order packed and what is the minimum?
200 panels for a trial order, in any mix of thickness, GSM and colour. Beyond a trial we would rather quote a container load. Trial order, 200 panels, 6,400 sq ft, mixed thickness, GSM and colour. Recommended, Full container. A panel is 1220 x 2440 mm, which is 32 sq ft. Palletised flat and film wrapped. Printed panels interleaved and corner protected.

Drawings in, BOQ and a delivered date out
A plan and a section is enough. We will come back with a build-up, a BOQ and a delivered date, and we will say so if what you are asking for will not work.
